ACCESSIBLE TRANSPORTATION

A CALL TO ACTION


Ask any person with a physical disability, which is the bigger hurdle: Your core disability? Or access barriers?

Accessing buildings, services and transportation will be the answer 99 out of 100 (there’s always one outlier) people will say it’s the way we continue to make mobility difficult for people with a wide range of disabilities.

That’s why we are sharing our National Transportation Week Call to Action. 

While there have been great gains in employers understanding the value of remote work – from entry to executive level, for people with and without disabilities – many jobs still require an in-person presence at least a few days per week.

For the past several decades, National Transportation Week has been observed in mid-May.

Public transit, inclusive transportation and safe sidewalks are huge elements in the quality of life for everyone and enable people with disabilities to navigate to and around their workplaces.
